Ridgefield, CT, December 22, 2007 --(PR.com)-- Tim Zagat & Nina Zagat, Co-founders of Zagat Survey, talk about building a unique brand that empowers consumers to have a say about the right places to eat, drink, shop and play. Specifically, the Zagats explain how over 300,000 surveyors report on more than 23 million restaurant experiences each year to create the foremost information source for discerning consumers.

Nina relates how a trip to France in the early 70’s was the birthplace of their business concept that recognized America’s need for readily available information about restaurants. Tim Zagat relates the story of how the Zagat Survey grew from a hobby shared among friends into a business covering restaurants in some 88 cities worldwide, now extending to venues such as hotels, resorts, golf, nightlife, and shopping.

Reiss asks about the challenges of the building the business and Nina Zagat tells how a turning point in their business was recognizing the business was not publishing – but was about content, organized in a compact, consistent format. Zagat Survey is based on the simple premise that the opinions of thousands of people is inherently more accurate than those of only a few.

Tim Zagat talks about the future of Zagat Survey and how the Internet is dramatically expanding the value of their services by enabling consumers to quickly select and make reservations at restaurants and hotels from taxis or on the street using handheld devices. Concluding, he makes the point that the biggest differentiator in providing value is understanding your customer.

Zagat Survey, headquartered in New York, is a family operated business, founded in 1979 by Tim and Nina Zagat. More information about Zagat Guides can be found online at: www.zagat.com and about the business at www.zagatsurvey.com
